‘Avatar’ Star Sam Worthington Arrested for Fighting in Atlanta

Australian-born actor Sam Worthington was arrested in Atlanta on Saturday for allegedly fighting in a bar, Celebuzz has confirmed.

Police saythat Worthington, 36, was refused entrance to the venue Vortex because security at the door believed he was too intoxicated. He’s been charged with disorderly conduct and was bonded out on $453 bail.

Worthington — best known for the portrayals of Jake Sully in Avatar, Marcus Wright in Terminator Salvation and Perseus in Clash of the Titans and its sequel, Wrath of the Titans — allegedly pushed the doorman twice and the doorman responded by pepper spraying him and putting him in cuffs until the cops arrived.

TMZ reports the incident was caught on surveillance video.

A spokesperson for Vortex told Celebuzz the venue was not making any comment.
